How to get the link behind the label using Beautifulsoup?-CodePudding

I've tried it in so many ways, but I only get to the hyperlink/label.

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import urllib3

http = urllib3.PoolManager()

url = 'http://www.warrencountyschools.org/district_staff.aspx?action=search&location=12&department=0'
response = http.request('GET', url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(response.data)

# the second tr in the table - index starts at 0
table = soup.find('table', {'class': 'content staff-table'})
rows = table.findAll('tr')
for tr in rows:
    cols = tr.findAll('td')
    if len(cols) >= 3:
        link = cols[2].find('a').get('href')
        #link = cols[2].find('a', href=True)
        #link = cols[2].find('a').attrs['href']
        print(link)

Here's the output:

/staff/2068

/staff/1183

/staff/24563

/staff/1261

/staff/25535

Behind each line printed above, there's a link that I would like to get instead of the label.

Here's where I'm getting it from:

Thanks for any help.

CodePudding user response：

They are relative urls and you have to convert them into asbolute urls.

Script:

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import urllib3

http = urllib3.PoolManager()
base_url='http://www.warrencountyschools.org'
url = 'http://www.warrencountyschools.org/district_staff.aspx?action=search&location=12&department=0'
response = http.request('GET', url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(response.data)

# the second tr in the table - index starts at 0
table = soup.find('table', {'class': 'content staff-table'})
rows = table.findAll('tr')
for tr in rows:
    cols = tr.findAll('td')
    if len(cols) >= 3:
        link = cols[2].find('a').get('href')
        abs_link= base_url link
        #link = cols[2].find('a', href=True)
        #link = cols[2].find('a').attrs['href']
        print(abs_link)

CodePudding user response：

If I've understood what you're asking correctly, the links like /staff/2068 ARE the link addresses. They are relative to the address of the page. For example go to:

https://www.warrencountyschools.org/staff/2068
